I will never do that, send my picture or phone number to anyone here
Then clearly you (just like fabiola) must be a scammer.

[that was sarcasm/irony, and not personal...]
... , especially since I got scammed myself months ago buying a miner (not on this forum, on eBay), and *maybe* for a second time now if butterfly labs don't deliver. That's almost £4k mate, not funny. I know I'm not the only one who's been scammed and I understand why you guys are so scared of scammers, I am too! But it has nothing to do with gender.

you have my condolences, for whatever they're worth...
I know it was sarcasm/irony but it still hurts to be called a scammer
I was trying to make two points: (1) although there's a need to prove yourself before being trusted, there should be no need to prove yourself to avoid being called a scammer; (2) even though both fabiola! and samaricanin have not "proven" themselves by sending pics to someone, only fabiola! was called a scammer (due to her gender). Sorry if the way I tried to make these points inadvertently caused offense...
